Sermons on Mystery:

The Heavenly Trio

Contributed by Craig Condon on Jul 3, 2015

The Trinity is a mystery, but this does not mean a riddle. Instead, the Trinity is a reality above our human comprehension that we may begin to grasp, but ultimately must know through worship, symbol and faith.

Most of you have probably heard the legends about St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland. One particular legend, which is based on fact, is his understanding of the concept of the Trinity. In his personal confession, he wrote: For there is no other God, nor ever was before, nor shall be ...read more

Contributed by Claude Alexander on Aug 22, 2019

Jesus Introduces The Kingdom Series

Contributed by Dr. Jonathan Vorce on Jan 26, 2019

The Question Evil Can’t Answer

Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 29, 2025

Evil remains a mystery, but the cross reveals God’s character. He enters human suffering, bears its weight, and assures us that love—not evil—has the final word.

There are certain questions that do not arise from curiosity, but from collision. They are not born in classrooms or debates, but in moments when life presses hard against the soul and refuses to explain itself. These questions surface when loss interrupts routine, when suffering enters without ...read more

Questions In Genesis (Answers In The Gospels)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on May 31, 2024

Genesis does not give us the final answers. Rather it poses a lot of questions and mysteries which are only answered later in the Gospels. Let's look at some of those questions.

Excellent resources are the ministry of Answers in Genesis and the Creation Research Institute. However, there are questions in Genesis not answered until the Gospels. Let’s look at some of those questions. At creation, God described humanity as “very good.” Are we now totally depraved or ...read more

El Misterio De Goshen

Contributed by James Dina on Feb 3, 2022

La Tierra de Gosén tenía tantos misterios que solo Dios podía desentrañar. "Cuanto más afligían a los israelitas, más se multiplicaban". Cada vez que Dios bendijo a Israel, maldijo a Egipto. Que Dios proteja a los cristianos perseguidos en todo el mundo.

EL MISTERIO DE GOSHEN Entonces el faraón habló a José, diciendo: "Tu padre y tus hermanos han venido a ti. La tierra de Egipto está ante ti. Deja que tu padre y tus hermanos habiten en lo mejor de la tierra; que habiten en la tierra de Gosén. Y si conoces a ...read more

Ang Misteryo Ng Goshen

Contributed by James Dina on Feb 3, 2022

Ang Lupain ng Goshen ay may napakaraming misteryo na tanging Diyos lamang ang makakalutas. "Habang inaapi nila ang mga Israelita, lalo silang dumami." Nawa'y protektahan ng Diyos ang mga inuusig na Kristiyano sa buong mundo.

ANG MISTERYO NG GOSHEN Nang magkagayo'y nagsalita si Faraon kay Jose, na sinasabi, Ang iyong ama at ang iyong mga kapatid ay dumating sa iyo. Ang lupain ng Egypt ay nasa harap mo.

Hard Or Simple?

Contributed by William Mouser on Oct 25, 2005
